Dark ruby core with a garnet rim. The nose is full of aromas of dried cherry, violets, rose petals and leather. Dark cherry, cranberry and raspberry fruit flavors. Hint of black pepper on the short finish. Medium bodied with light tannins and mouth watering acidity. No evidence of oak aging. Basic “pizza wine,” but quite gulpable. Excellent QPR. — 4 months ago

Steady full representative of Etna Rosso. Mineral laden. — a month ago
Gorgeous nose. Boundless fresh roses and mid season cherry. Lithe, subtle yet vivid and so delicate. Just stunning. Carema is a wonderland. Soft, sweet and elegant with tart cherries and dusty tannins. A bit reserved now but it’s all there. Perfect balance here and astonishing length. So elegant and aristocratic. As it airs palate gets more opulent in the mid and the fruit slowly gains clarity and definition. More to come with air! Nose turns smokey and tarry now with air. Glorious spice. — a year ago
Belatedly and quietly. OK, good, but not quite together or nor aged enough. — 4 months ago
Lovely Cab leading blend with a healthy dose of Carménère. Gentle nose of ripe plum, black currant, dark chocolate, autumn leaves, and touch of green pepper. Eloquent medium body with round acidity and fine grained tannins.
Ready to drink, but should benefit from 5 years or so bottle age. — 7 months ago
More than just a pretty label. Very good value wine for everyday use. Agree with comment from earlier vintage. Describing day 2 after opening. Starts sweet, then spicy, then finishes with a musky undergrowth. Somewhat dense with subtle tannins. Fruit is a huckleberry/fig melange. Overall unique and interesting. — 2 years ago
